Total number of students who graduated in 2023, categorized by income groups, is as follows:

 

The B40 group, which represents 57.1% of the students, likely includes a significant number of students who are at higher risk of facing economic challenges. Achieving higher graduation rates for these students is crucial in aligning with SDG 1, which aims to end poverty. Ensuring that students in the B40 group graduate successfully can help break the cycle of poverty by providing them with better opportunities for employment and economic stability.

Focusing on improving graduation rates among the B40 students can directly support the goal of reducing poverty and promoting economic inclusion, which are central objectives of SDG 1.

M40 Group (29% of students): This group represents a middle income level. Although they are not in the lowest income bracket, they still face economic challenges that can impact their educational outcomes. Supporting the graduation of students in the M40 group can help further reduce poverty by improving their economic prospects and ensuring they are not left behind. By addressing their needs, we contribute to a broader effort to achieve economic stability and reduce poverty.

T20 Group (13.9% of students): This group includes students from higher-income families. They are less likely to face the same economic hardships as the B40 and M40 groups. However, their success in education is still important for the overall goal of reducing poverty. Ensuring that students from the T20 group continue to graduate successfully can help maintain educational standards and equity, supporting a balanced approach to poverty reduction.In summary, while the B40 group is directly linked to SDG 1 due to their higher risk of poverty, supporting the graduation of students in the M40 and T20 groups also plays a role in achieving SDG 1 by promoting overall educational success and economic stability.
